Not here to brag -- not my style.

But I'm stoked... giddy in fact.

Got to briefly drive an Enzo today.

Incredible... it's beyond words.

The fastest car to-date I've driven was a eurospec F40 on the Autobahn and Nurburgring.

The Enzo is SO much faster.

And the torque...

I have a couple of pics and stuff and can answer questions to the best of my ability of anyone is interested.

In the meantime I'll sit here in shock and sheer wonderment :)

No, I don't have it yet...

I hear they are trying to get all of the Enzos built so the US-spec Stradale's are delayed.

Am hoping for a Jan/Feb delivery, afterwhich there will MUCH canyon driving, I assure you :)

In the meantime I really miss this:

It is actually stunning in person - breathtaking - and I am very envious!

Agreed. I've seen one in person in red, and then this one in black.

Any lines or strangeness that appears in 2d images seem to be resolved when you see it in person. At least for me, anyway.

The F40 may still be my favoite looking car, and has been so since it came out (1989?). But the Enzo is creeping up on it... it certainly looks better than the F50, IMHO (they had one there at the dealer so it was fairly easy to look back and forth).

And then there's the performance... the incredible torque that made me feel like I was on open class stret bike... and the balance... the prescision turning... the build quality...

I must have one, one day :
 
One day, Brad? It is more like right now, knowing you. Order an Enzo, or grab a F40, then slap on the Ferrari's factory performance package which will boost your hp up to around 650hp with some twin turbo works. Saw one F40 like that down at Symbolic and that thing was smoking.
 
As far as canyons go, don't delay because the Stradale is not here yet, you can always bring out your other toys to have fun with us. When my NSX get back, which is very soon now, we have to set up something.
 
YOU DROVE AN ENZO!!!!! That's like saying,
Just got up today,
Had a cup of Starbucks,
and, Oh yeah, just had sex with three super models.

WOW, more details/pictures please.....

I love cars just as much as the next guy.....but I'll take the super models, thank you very much:D:D:D:D
 
Wow.. that is totally awesome. I hated the ENZO at first, but it is growing on me. I love the front and I love the back. I really think it looks ugly from the side.

You are soooo lucky! And you are getting a stradale!! WOW! Love it!
 
Your wife IS understanding

My wife encouraged me to get the NSX, but 3 super models, 1) She'd never allow me 2)If I got them anyway, my defibrillator would probably go off enough, that it would kill me (but what a way to go!!!!!!!):p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p
 
What the #$%@ do you do for a living to be able to buy and/or drive these cars? It sounds like something that I need to be doing. :D

Go and check his signature and find out what he does; I will tell you that much.

I think the Enzos are absolutely stunning. I saw 2 reds, one black and a yellow one at last Paris Auto Show. If there is another Batman movie, the black Enzo should be the Batmobile.

If you get something like this; would you even drive it?
 
Do you think that the F40 with the upgrade package can challenge the Enzo acceleration-wise?
 
Hmm, I don't see a signature. Is that Brad of EQ fame? If so I can totally understand why he can afford all that. Heck, I still have my account active, which I've had since PhaseIV beta...
 
I could tell you, but it is not my place to. What he does relate to computer, ok.
